[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All boys schools doesnt mean no interaction with girls and doesn’t mean bad behavior. Lot of stereotypes here, OP. Stop generalizing.[/quote]  At an all boys school, meaning a school without girls,  there is zero interaction with girls.  If you want to say that everywhere but school there is interactions with girls, fine.  But even that would be nuts to say.  Get up in the morning, go to an all boys school, maybe go to practice after school (most likely Not a coed team) then go home after school.  Unless they are going out and doing things they shouldn't be on a school night,  WHERE ARE THERE GIRLS IN THAT DAY![/quote]

My son has classes with girls at the all girls school his school is associated with.

He also has a number of classes taught by excellent teachers that also happen to be women.  [/quote] if he is in class with girls all day every day, I wouldn't call that an all boys school.[/quote]

The poster didn’t say “all day.”

However, some single sex schools have joint classes and programs with their sister schools.

STA has “coordinate” classes with NCS starting in 7th. Chinese is taught at NCS for example.

Theater, chorus, crew, and many other activities are joint. [/quote] so some have some classes,  others zero classes with girls.  Got it.  And the kids need to join choir and crew. Got it.  [b]So when they should be working to be better at crew or singing it's ok to be around girls,  but not for working to get better at other things,  ok.  So at the end of the day,  is it better to be in a single sex environment or not?  If it is why have girls in crew or choir? [/b] Honest question.  I say it's not better for whatever that's worth.[/quote]

You are all over this thread with your “honest questions.” I hate to shame people, but your writing is atrocious and your critical thinking is severely lacking. It’s pretty clear you didn’t attend any of the schools we are discussing. Do we really need to explain to you how chorus, crew, and other activities with girls is different than single sex learning of math, science, language arts, and history? No, I think even you can grasp that those classes (the ones that college admissions actually looks at) are fundamentally different. [/quote]  college admissions will certainly look at crew if you are good enough.  [/quote]
